Difficulty is the most important, I lost twice during the story. first time was through extremely bad luck and the fact that I only ever had one person who could resurrect,. dragon managed to get a very lucky hit on my healer and down she went. other time was because the game was too easy and I was rushing it and bit off more than I could chew. Neither time was really because of the game being difficult. also I never bought new armor for any character other than the custom character and when I bought new armor for him the 2 times I did it I never bothered switching the old to another character. got a few weapons but that was it. The skill system seemed rather bland, some more exciting skills especially for the magic tree. fire version of spell, wind version of same spell, earth version of same spell, water version of same spell. one spell in each tree was different and only for the useless status effect. for the same reason magic was rather meh. also the highest version didn't seem too useful compared to the next for the magic cost. Binding and items in general, were too useless. Was probably heavily related to the difficulty of the game but still it needs to improve. Could go on on things to improve there's quite a bit! I liked the game overall, but it could use some improvements, many related to the difficulty. so yea, skill system overhaul and difficulty.

If you mean the main games then I believe quality have been relatively consistent. I wish they go back to the battle system of 1-10, 12 was well decent, but when I want to play a game I want to control all the characters and direct control not through gambits and such. FFX had probably my favorite story and the battle system was lovely. not sure what you hated but I thought it was beyond excellent. I've been reading versus 13 is supposed to be a bit more old school FF though. for the other parts of the FF name, tactics was the only one I enjoyed tacticts advanced 1 and 2 both we standard to poor. the first crystal chronicles was nice, the DS ones were decent, but honestly I wish they stop making them and focus on the main games. dirge of cerebus was fun and nice to play, haven't gotten to crisis core. So I wouldn't say they've been going down or up, it's more going steady which sadly you didn't put a choice for. FF has never settled on a solid idea, but that's part of what I love about it. the overdrive system changes from game to game a bit, the magic system changes immensely, the ATB system was always getting more active(FFXII took it to the extreme though) and even leveling changes a bit for game to game. Yes they don't have as much content as some games, but the story are great and the content is usually more than enough. also Final Fantasy games had always had huge amounts of replayability. I just got done beating 2 again, beat 5 and 6 recently. Got a hold of FFX international so I replayed FFX and I enjoy every moment of each of them.

If he were doing it for piracy purposes, he wouldn't have gone through all of the trouble of cracking the system for development. It's possible to play backup copies of games on a PS3 via use of the swap disc method which requires simple dissassembly of the BD-ROM drive.

Also, FYI, Sony dropped the Other OS feature starting with the Slim units.

I find that statement interesting considering that I have found this method nowhere else including some of the major sites for topics like this. anyway's the 360 is still doing fine the system has been decently cracked open. the WII can have pirated games played on it with just the use of a $5-10 SD card. system is currently the best selling system of them all and new super mario bros. has sold 10.5 million copies last I checked. piracy hasn't killed the easiest to pirate console, why would it kill the PS3 when we don't even know if a soft-mod will be available. homebrew is sweet, cracking open the system allows us to play emulated old games on our systems, the system has the power why should nintendo stop me from playing final fantasy 6 on my WII, I have the game legally bought for the SNES, why should I have to buy it again? charging fees to developers to put games on consoles is annoying, homebrew is nothing but good to a good society. We just want what we should already have, unrestricted access to the console that we legitimately paid for. when you go to a resturant you don't pay for a meal and get to only eat half of it. I didn't sign a single contract from sony saying that I was getting only half a system or that I couldn't develop games for it or that I could only play the games they wanted me to play. I paid for the console and want full access to it. if that is consider illegal than so be it, it might be illegal but it is right.
